Optical performance of finished and unfinished tropical timbers exposed to ultraviolet light in the field in Costa Rica
(Wood Material Science & Engineering, 2016)
This study evaluated wood color change (ΔE*) and the surface quality in 10 tropical wood species painted with three
finishes (composed of wax and polyurethane). Two weathering conditions were tested: natural weathering ...
Evaluation of wood properties from six native species of forest plantations in Costa Rica
(Bosque, 2016)
This study details information about physical, chemical and mechanical properties, drying, preservation and workability of wood
from Cordia alliodora, Dipteryx panamensis, Enterolobium cyclocarpum, Hieronyma alchorneoides, ...
Effects on density, shrinking, color changing and chemical surface analysis through FTIR of Tectona grandis thermo-treated: Density, shrinking, color changing and chemical analysis by FTIR of the thermally-treated teak wood
(Forest Sciences, 2016)
Thermal-treatment wood is used as an option to improve durability of wood in recent years. This study
evaluated the effect of temperature in thermally treated Tectona grandis wood in density, shrinking, color
changing ...
Mejoramiento en la eficiencia del proceso de secado convencional y homogenización en el color de la Albura y el Duramen en madera de Teca (Tectona grandis L.) (Documento I)
(Instituto Tecnológico de Costa Rica. Vicerrectoría de Investigación y Extensión (VIE). Escuela de Ingeniería Forestal. Centro de Investigación en Innovación Forestal (CIF), 2016)
Different drying schedules were investigated to decrease drying time of Tectona grandis L. wood from juvenile plantations, using the drying rate (DR) to reduce time. The DR value was 20% per day during the first stages and ...
Surface chemical and color characterization of juvenile tectona grandis wood subjected to steam-drying treatments
(2016)
The color of Tectona grandis wood is an attribute that favors its commercialization, however, wood
color from fast-growth plantation trees is clear and lacks uniformity. The aim of this work is to
characterize steamed ...
